TEAM BLUE- SAHM 60 day challenge....yay!

Hey ladies,

So every challenge that we have for this week are done. Jillian is majorly kicking my butt with level 2. But I feel so much better after I finish. I have 7 more days of level 2 then on 2 level 3.

mlpaint: I always look at your food diary and you always eat so clean.

jwlBoatie_3: I admire you as well. I love the fact that you try your hardest to do your exercising even though you have an injury.

Stacey: Like you said we have our "single mom" status that we have in common. So when u say u have a hard day cuz of your kids I always know exactly what you mean.

Devin: I know your sick right now, but you still managed to to do at least one day of exercising. I know its hard to do anything when you are sick.

Hey all! Well I'm out of the hospital, YEAH!!! Man, I hate having cellulitis :-\ I'll be getting flare ups for a while but it could be worse :-) First of all, my name is Julissa Barco but i prefer Jwlz; hence my screeen name JwlzBoatie! I've completed all my weekly challenges except one. so, here goes, my final challenge:

Stacey: You, are awesome! I'm glad that you volunteered to be our group leader, you definitely have great leadership skills and are very supportive. I love that I have been able to come to you and have your support no matter what my situation. Thank you!

Jennifer: The same to you..you and Stacey are so supportive, even when I feel I am having a bad food day or exercise day, you post a supportive comment and make the frustration a bit less annoying because I feel I DO have a good support system and this push is for you guys as well. Thank you!

Devin: Though you've been under the weather and sometimes aren't able to do the challenges or workout, you log in and let your friends know. It makes me feel that you consider us as true friends and supporters. When you have a crazy fever or sore throat and are still here shows how dedicated you are. Dedication+Motivation=Inspiration. You are one of the reason I found a way to get on here even when I was in the hospital. Though you may think its different, it not. You made the effort to let your supporters in MFP know why you may not be on here but that your support was, I wanted to do the same. Thank you!

Mlpaint: Unfortunately, we've only been friends a couple of days but in reading your posts and blogs I feel that I'm fortunate to have someone on the team who understands my frustration when our legs have a mind of their own. I was reading about your splints and how you still try and push yourself to get a good workout and I thought to myself, "She'll get me". The situation may be different as to the degree of weakness or illness but the drive to achieve is the same. I'm glad you joined you our team. Thank you!

I thank each and everyone of you because without your constant support, motivation and friendship, I don't think I would have remained so involved in the challenge. All of you, inspire me in your own ways and I hope to have your continued support and vise versa even after the challenge. Hope we all have a great weigh in tomorrow!! xoxox


Jwlz: 6 pts yeah!!!

I have completed all of my challenges and had a 1.2lb loss! I am sooo excited because I had to take a few days off because of some major shin splints and tendinitis in my right foot. I've been stretching it and icing every night and it seemed to have faded until I did level 2 on the shred yesterday and then walked for 1.5 hours with my neighbors... Ouch!

poesch77: I would love to know your first name as well haha my name is Melanie! You seem so sweet as well and can always count on an encouraging word from you. Thank you!!!

Julissa: You are rocking it girl! I am so glad you are out of the hospital and hope you are back up and at-um asap! I'm glad we are friends on here now and can't wait to follow your journey. Thank you for all of the encouraging comments with my leg issues!

Jennifer: You are kicking butt with the shred just a few days ahead of me. It encourages me when I see your update that you had finished it. Keep it up hun!

Devin: I LOVE that you have been aware of your challenges even while you are sick. Keep it up girl and I hope you feel better soon!

My ticker seems to have bit the dust I can't get it to come back!
